HC Deb 01 March 1955 vol 537 cc239-40W
30. Mr. Lee

asked the Chancellor of Exchequer whether he is aware of the deterioration in the economic position in the United States of America; and what steps he is taking to safeguard this country against the effects of such conditions.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Any deterioration in the economic position of the United States cannot be regarded as immediately recent. An opposite tendency now seems evident.
